Chesney, known for his hit The One and Only, is the son of musician Len Hawkes and actress, Carol Dilworth.

Len is best known for being a member of the Tremeloes, a successful band who secured a number one hit in 1963 with the track, Do You Love Me.

The band went on to score a string of 13 top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart between 1967 and 1971.

Speaking in the Diary Room, Chesney told Big Brother of an incredible link to The Beatles with his father Len being a close pal of George Harrison.

They hit it off after meeting one another during a recording session in the 60s.

Chesney said on the ITV show: “My parents were rock and rollers, my dad’s a rockstar, my mum was an actress and a game show host.

“It was like parties all the time and celebrities over at the house.

“My brother and sister and I just watched in awe at the debauchery in front of us.”

Adding of some of the famous faces he would see at their home during one of the wild celeb-packed parties, Chesney said: “Gerry Marsden was slumped at the bar.

“Radio 1 DJs, Mike Read, wearing a dress if I remember rightly.

I was sitting there with my dad and Eric Clapton and George Harrison came up to us and said to my dad, ‘go on then introduces us to your famous son’.

“There are all my uncles these guys.”

Chesney went on to carve out an impressive career of his own thanks to his legendary hit single.

His CBB stint coincides with the release of his latest album, Living Arrows.
